"My sister, please hurry up and make things clear! I really can't think of it, and my head is about to die of a headache. Sun Xiaobei was puzzled, so he had to ask Jiang Jiang for help.

"Did you see a big house not far from us when we came?" Jiang Jiang asked Sun Xiaobei.

"I see," Sun Xiaobei said, "I can't read, I only see a few cars and horses parked in front of the door, and I don't look like I'm doing big business." ”

"I'll tell you, it's an ice vault." Jiang Jiang said: "If we want to get rich, we have to start somewhere first." ”

"You're going to sell ice?" Sun Xiaobei asked Jiang Jiang in surprise: "I'm afraid this thing is not easy to do, right?" The ice warehouse has its owner, and even if people want to make a move, it's not something we can get over with two dates. Besides, it's the peak season for the freezer, so who wants to do it? ”

"Of course I can't afford to buy an ice cellar, but I can rent an ice cellar," Jiang Jiang said with a smile, "Just look at it!" ”

The next morning, Jiang Jiang and Sun Xiaobei finished breakfast, locked the courtyard door, and came directly to the freezer.

The owner of the ice warehouse was surnamed Yang and his name was Yang Dehua, and when he saw Jiang Jiang and Sun Xiaobei wearing coarse cloth clothes, they were young, so he thought that they were servants from a family who had come to buy ice.

There is an ice warehouse in the east, west, north and south of Ling Tiancheng, also called the Ice Bureau, which is harvested in the middle of winter and put into the ice cellar, and the ice is directly picked from the river, and then sold when it is hot.

Most people buy it in a pot and put it in the house to cool down, or chill the fruit across the plate. Ice is not put directly into water or food because it is not clean enough.

Now that the seventh lunar month is halfway through, at most another month of ice will be sold.

In autumn, the ice game enters the off-season, and almost no one patronizes it.

"Do you want to buy ice?" Boss Yang asked.

"Boss, I'm here to discuss something with you," Jiang Jiang said with a smile, "I wonder if there is a vacant space in your ice cellar now, can you rent it to me?" ”

"You want to rent an ice cellar?" Boss Yang asked in surprise, he has been running the ice game for so many years, and he hasn't heard of anyone renting an ice cellar.

"That's right, anyway, your place is idle, so it's better to rent it to me, and I'll pay you the rent every month." Jiang Jiang said.

"What are you renting an ice cellar for?" Boss Yang couldn't help but ask: "Tell you, if you store things like pigs, sheep, chickens, and fish in it, it won't work, then the entire ice cellar will be stained with a fishy commotion, and I won't be able to get rid of it for many years, and I won't be able to do this business." ”

"Don't worry, I won't let those things in," Jiang Jiang assured, "I'm just storing some melons, fruits, pears and peaches, and that's okay, right?" ”

"Little brother, you can't put fruits in this ice cellar," Boss Yang kindly reminded: "As long as it takes one night, those fruits will freeze into ice lumps, and once they melt again, they will be rotten and inedible." ”

"You don't have to worry about this," Jiang Jiang said with a smile: "I want to put it for myself, you just say that this ice storage can be rented to me?" ”

"It's okay to rent, I'm idle here," Boss Yang said, "It's just that there is a problem with your fruit, and I am not responsible." ”

"Of course you don't have to be responsible," Jiang Jiang said, "I just don't know how much the monthly rent is?" ”

"I've never rented it out," Boss Yao scratched his head and said, "I don't know how many months you're going to rent it?" ”

"We're going to rent it for two months," Jiang Jiang said, "but we don't have a lot of money, and you can see how the two of us are dressed." ”

Boss Yao passed a few times in his heart, and said: "Give me five taels of silver in two months, and you need this money even if you rent another place to make a warehouse." ”

Jiang Jiang had already inquired about the market in the past few days and knew that Boss Yang didn't ask for a high price, so he nodded and said, "Then let's settle down and write a contract, and the rent for two months will be five taels of silver." ”

Sun Xiaobei gave Jiang Jiang a look on the side when he heard this, they now have a total of less than ten taels of silver left, and it will cost five taels to rent this ice cellar, and there are more than four taels left, and they have to eat and take the bottom pad, what if the money is not available at that time?

Jiang Jiang just gave him a slightly calm look.

After writing the contract with Boss Yang and paying the money, Jiang Jiang and Sun Xiaobei walked out of the ice game.

"What the hell are you renting an ice bureau for? Do you want to put fruit in it? Didn't you hear Boss Yang say that the fruit freezes into ice overnight and can't be eaten anymore?! Sun Xiaobei finally said the words that he had been holding back for a long time.

"Who said I was going to sell fruit? I'm going to sell ice. Jiang Jiang said.

"What? You're going to sell ice cubes too?! Then Boss Yang knows that you can still rent it to you if you rob his business? Besides, it's not authentic! Sun Xiaobei nagged.

"Let's go buy a trolley first." Jiang Jiang didn't want to talk to him at all.

Although the place where they live is a suburb, it is close to the East Market, and it is very convenient to buy things, which is optimistic when they first rented a house.

The two of them went to Dongshi to buy a trolley, and then bought a lot of fruit.

At this time, it is the peak season for all kinds of fruits, which are cheap and delicious.

After buying a few more wooden barrels with lids and a lot of sugar, Sun Xiaobei pouted and pushed the cart behind Jiang Jiang.

Jiang Jiang went to the carpenter's shop and asked them to make a few sets of molds, all of which were small grooves one by one, and the inner layer was lined with tin foil.

A large wooden barrel was also beaten, with a cross-shaped wooden rack in the middle with a crank on the outside. Shake the wooden cross inside the crumble and it will rotate quickly.

At the same time, I also made several wooden boxes with large bellies and small mouths, and I don't know what they are for.

These strange tools take three days to complete.

Jiang Jiang and Sun Xiaobei brought the fruit they bought home, and then peeled and cored it to boil it into jam, and some of the pulp was marinated in sugar.

Then put them separately in wooden barrels, cover them with lids, and place them in a cool place.

Jiang Jiang contacted a family that sold milk and said that he would send them a bucket of milk regularly.

Jiang Jiang himself is a food science and engineering major, although there are many ingredients in the Great Qin Kingdom that have not appeared now, such as whipping cream, tofu and so on.

However, as long as the ingredients are available, the desired ingredients can be made by appropriate methods.

For example, with milk, you can refine cream, you can get starch with grains, you can further make a series of foods such as peeled vermicelli with starch, and you can also extract glucose from starch, and glucose can be oxidized to form lactone acid, which is synthesized into lactone tofu by oxidation.

These are all things that she has learned in her major, and there is nothing difficult about them.

On this day, because the tools created had not yet been completed, Sun Xiaobei proposed to go to the market with Jiang Jiang to tell stories.

Jiang Jiang was really too lazy to move his mouth, so he said to him: "You can talk about it by yourself, and all the money you earn belongs to you." ”

"So what are you doing at home? There's nothing to do anyway. Sun Xiaobei still wanted to take Jiang Jiang with him.

"I want to go out for a walk and relax." Jiang Jiang said.
